Qin Yixuan was secretly shocked in his heart: "Didn't this guy see the flaws and already know my identity?" But then he laughed: "Boss Zhang laughed, although he is not rich, the silver he brought with him this time is still enough to pay for this table of dishes." Come, come, let's drink this cup full. After speaking, he raised his glass in his hand and saluted around. Everyone raised their glasses and drank their all. After sitting down, everyone picked up their chopsticks and ate them. Everyone has their own hearts and minds, and they don't say anything. Although on the surface it is a toast and a dish, the elder brother is long and the brother is short, and it seems to be very affectionate, but in fact it is tantamount to a Hongmen banquet. Both sides did not eat happily.

After being full of wine and food, Qin Yixuan took out ten taels of silver and asked Guangde to go to the account. The man looked at it coldly and didn't give in, and suddenly said, "Let the third master break the bill." As soon as the words "Third Master" came out, Qin Zhenxuan was undoubtedly like five thunderbolts, and he thought to himself: "Oops, it seems that he still recognizes my identity, what should I do?" But he still laughed in his mouth: "How does Boss Liu know that I am the third child?" Yes, I'm the third in the family. ”

The man smiled gloomily and said, "Boss Zhang, not only do I know that you are the third child, but I also know a lot of things." When Qin Yixuan heard that he still called himself "Boss Zhang", he felt a little relieved: "It seems that he doesn't know that my surname is Qin, but what does he mean by the next sentence?" It's not right, it's not right, it's still wrong. ”

After the guests in the inn finished eating, they began to set up the gambling table. Seeing this, Qin Zhenxuan was about to leave, but was pulled by the man: "Play two games with my brother and see how my brother's luck is?" It's mine to lose, and it's ours to make it. ”

Qin Yanxuan was bitter in his heart, and was about to refuse, but several other men surrounded him, blocked the way and said, "Third master, take a look at the face, give our eldest brother a scene." Qin Yanxuan saw that he couldn't go away from this posture, and turned his heart sideways: "What can he do to me if he doesn't leave, so many people can't kidnap me." So he sat down again and said to Yuan Naikuan and Guangde: "I'm here to play with Boss Liu, you can go back to the house and rest first." After speaking, he winked at Yuan Naikuan, Yuan Naikuan comprehended, and walked out with Guangde, and those people didn't stop him.

The man laughed when he saw it: "That's right, this is my good friend." Come on, come on, I'll be the banker. Feel free to place your bets, the bigger the better. After saying that, he beckoned to one of his subordinates, whispered a few words, and the subordinate listened and walked out.

At this time, the table was full of people, and they began to play Pai Gow. Qin Yixuan and the man sat in the village, and the man held the dice in his hand and kept shaking: "Hurry up, bet quickly, the dice will leave your hand immediately." "Everyone bet one after another, and there are those who place copper coins, and there are silver dollars, and there are also those that are one and a half taels, and there are also those that are five taels. At first, everyone was afraid to make big bets and wanted to see what the dealer's idea was.

Boss Liu took out a handful of stacked cards from the right end, "The fourth right opens the door, and the dice leaves his hand, and there are no eight to nine." Saying that, Boss Liu slammed the dice into the middle of the table: "Tianmen's cards" finished speaking and began to divide the cards. He took the four cards in his hand, stared at the blood-red eyes and shouted, "Red, red, red to the end!" "I was quite frustrated after reading the cards, and I matched the cards back and forth, and finally put the two small cards in front and the big cards in the back. Then began to flop the bright bottom, after looking at the other three cards, the card was pushed to the middle and said: "The first hand is unfavorable, and the loss is through." Fourth, give money. ”

It turned out that his card was a gold bottle, a big five, a tiger head, and a small five. Either it is matched with the first one and the last five, or it is paired with the broken ten and six. In the end, he played the first five and the last five, and everyone else had better hands than him. The person called the fourth child compensated the guests with silver and silver dollars and copper coins, and Boss Liu started the second one: "The dice is turned over, and there will be a big day." As he spoke, he took the card in his hand and slammed it down: "Thick, thick, thicker." ”

As a result, the hand was another bad hand, and it lost again. Boss Liu didn't care: "If a hero doesn't win the first three, he will go down again." Saying that he played dice and split cards, this time after seeing the cards, he put the cards on the table and said: "Tuck dick (it's over), completely tuck dick, don't look at it, pay through the compensation." ”

Boss Liu lost three times in a row, and the guests suddenly whispered excitedly: "The dealer's idea is not good, you can play more." So the guests started raising, and the bets got bigger and bigger, and the customers got more and more. Boss Liu's points have never been turned over, and he only occasionally won a few handfuls in the middle, and most of the others were lost.

"The dealer is a little skinny, plus." Before I knew it, the time had come, and the fourth watch had already been beaten upstairs. Suddenly, there was a distant gunshot outside. Everyone was startled, and then calmed down again, listening to the sound of gunfire, the inn was still far away. The man named the fourth child whispered a few words in his ear. Then Boss Liu turned his face to look at Qin Yuxuan and said with a smile: "Third master, I'm sorry, my brother is not lucky, can I borrow three thousand taels of silver to my brother?" Qin Yixuan was shocked, and said with a smile: "Brother is really joking, brother came out and brought a total of fifty taels of silver, and spent a lot of money on eating, living and playing in the past two days, not even thirty taels, don't make my brother happy." ”

Boss Liu smiled and said, "Pretend, it's still pretended." Qin Sanye, you really can fucking act, you are worthy of being called a poor man. As he spoke, he suddenly took out a firearm from behind his waist and said to Xuan Xuan's head: "Qin Sanbao, Lao Tzu has been following you for two days, and I came here to tie up your meat ticket." Let's not say dark words, and quickly hand over the piece of imperial jade. I, Liu Heiqi, speak and count, as long as I hand over the imperial jade, I will protect your life without worry. ”

The crowd was stunned by this sudden move, and when they realized it, they turned around and ran. Only then did he find that the door had been blocked, and a man took a firearm and fired a shot on the roof and said, "Don't move, take out all the silver on your body and put it on the table, and dare to leave one for you to taste the power of the firecracker." Saying that, several other people also took out the guy from their waists and threatened everyone to pay for it.

Qin Yixuan was still sitting still, he knew that this time it was really over, and it would be useless to deny it. Although Qin Zhenxuan practiced martial arts when he was a child, he followed Han Fuzi's long fist and plum blossom fist, and his martial arts were not bad. But to no avail on such occasions, resistance can only be killed on the spot.

The silver on the table was piled up, at least two thousand taels. The fourth man untied a burden from his waist and spread it on the table, pulling the silver in hard. After seeing him clean up, Boss Liu said to everyone: "Originally, I didn't come to you today, but I caught up today, and I had to take an autumn breeze by the way." Seventh Master, I want money and don't want to die, as long as you stay good and don't do anything crooked, Seventh Master, I will never move a single hair of yours. Seventh Master, I don't do dark things, my surname is Liu Guitang, and I am nicknamed 'Liu Heiqi'. In the future, if you want to seek revenge, you will come to me in Guanxian County, Shandong. ”

It turned out that this Boss Liu's name was Liu Guitang, and his nickname was "Liu Heiqi". A native of Guanxian County, Shandong, he often travels back and forth between the three provinces of Hebei, Shandong, and Henan to rob homes and houses, kidnapping tickets for extortion. Nakaizhou was originally located at the junction of Henan, Hebei and Shandong, the land of the three provinces of Jiming, and naturally became a place where Liu Heiqi often came and went. This time, he came specifically for Huangyu.

As soon as the words fell, I suddenly heard someone outside shouting: "The boy (officers and soldiers) is here, and the wind is tight." "Fourth, go and lead the horse, bring the third master's carriage too, don't be wronged by the third master." Liu Heiqi said: "The people in the house are all fucking honest for me, who dares to go out to see me not to break his head." The fourth child turned around and went out, Liu Heiqi and the rest of the brothers tied up Qin Yuxuan, collected the burden and withdrew outside the door.

At this time, the fourth child and the other two were waiting in the courtyard with six horses and a carriage. One of those two was Liu Heiqi who quietly arranged for him to go outside to spy on Yuan Naikuan and Guangde, this person's name is Liu Yuezeng, nicknamed "San Mazi", and he is Liu Guitang's nephew. The other person was the familiar person that Qin Zhenxuan and Guangde met on Youliang Street and Yuewang Temple. This person's name is Huang Shunde, nicknamed "Huaihuazi", a native of Mazhuang Bridge, Kaizhou. He is not very old, only eighteen or nineteen years old. But this guy is very clever, has high martial arts, and is ruthless, cruel by nature, and kills people at a young age. He has been following behind the two of them, following them, and finally the words of the third master of Yuewang Temple, "I am ashamed to come to Yuemiao, surnamed Qin" happened to be listened to by him. It was confirmed that this third master was the one they were going to find Qin Sanbao. After Liu Heiqi learned the information, he immediately led people to the old store of the Kong family, and this is the scene in the casino just now.

"Seventh brother, let's go, the one surnamed Yuan and the little car driver were killed by San Mazi. Boss Kong ran to report to the official and was beaten to death by me. But the gunfire alarmed the officials, and they were about to arrive, so go quickly. ”

Qin Xuanxuan's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he almost fainted. That Guangde is the son of his cousin Qin Tieying, called him uncle, the two of them are like father and son, how can they be worthy of their cousin when they die outside this time? . and Yuan Naikuan just met him because of this catastrophe in his heart, and regretted that he should not have befriended him.

Liu Heiqi said: "Brothers, get on the horse. Looking back at the light, he saw that his "chrysanthemum green" was in good spirits, and it seemed that the horse's illness had been cured. Looking back, he saw Xiangzi shivering in the dark under the eaves, Liu Heiqi said: "Little brother, don't be afraid, if it weren't for you and me, this 'chrysanthemum green' would be over last night, remember that the name of the seventh master is 'Liu Heiqi', and I will come to Shandong Guan County to find me in the future." Thank you very much! As he spoke, he took out a large ingot of silver from his bosom and threw it to Xiangzi and said, "Hurry up." ”

A few people rode horses and drove to the door of the inn, only to see the lanterns and torches outside shining as if it were day. A team of about 50 officers and soldiers each held knives and guns and shouted: "Be mental, don't let the thieves escape, this guy has killed someone." As he spoke, he rushed up to the inn.

Liu Heiqi and Huai Huazi rushed to the front first, drawing machetes from their horses' luggage, although the firecrackers were powerful, they were too slow to install gunpowder and were inconvenient for close combat. Liu Heiqi shouted: "Come over if you don't want to die, let you taste the power of the Seventh Master." ”

Huaihuazi rushed into the group of officers and soldiers side by side with him, killing and slashing indiscriminately. These people were originally outlaws on the rivers and lakes, living a life of licking blood with knives every day, and had been on the battlefield for a long time, so they had no fear in the face of officers and soldiers. Each danced the big sword in his hand and flew up and down, rushing left and right, but there were too many officers and soldiers, and they still couldn't break out of the encirclement. Liu Heiqi's eyes were red, he screamed, and a big knife danced through the wind and rain. Huaihuazi and the other bandits also rushed left and right as if desperately.

More and more officers and soldiers were killed and wounded, and three bandits were also killed by officers and soldiers. Qin Yixuan saw that the opportunity was good, and he wanted to escape, but he couldn't move because his hands and feet were tied. I tried several times without success. In the melee, he suddenly heard Liu Heiqi shouting, and was stabbed in the left rib by an officer and soldier, he waved his hand and cut off the barrel of the gun, and half of the head of the gun remained in his body, bleeding continuously. Seeing this, Huaihuazi shouted: "Protect the seventh brother and help him to the car." Rush out with me, don't fight. "Now there are only four of them left, and Liu Heiqi is also seriously injured and can't move.

Seeing that they were in a desperate situation, the remaining three people shouted loudly with one as ten, like a mad tiger. I only heard the sound of knives and guns, and screamed again and again. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen officers and soldiers were killed, and suddenly Huai Huazi yelled: "Take the fire gun." Several people held knives in one hand and guns in the other, only to see a flash of firelight, three gunshots, and three more officers and soldiers fell in response.

But there were a large number of officers and soldiers, and those in front fell, and those behind pounced, brandishing swords and guns like wolves. Liu Heiqi and others were surrounded by officers and soldiers, and it seemed that it was difficult to fly today, and it was difficult to escape the catastrophe.

Suddenly, there were a few soft sounds, and a dazzling light came out of the crowd, and then billowing smoke came out, and people couldn't open their eyes. The officers and soldiers were obviously blinded by this sudden smoke, and in this moment's pause, Huaihuazi and San Mazi had already protected Liu Heiqi to open a bloody road, rushed out of the inn, and ran all the way to the east.

"It's her, Li Youlan!" Qin Yuxuan hurriedly looked around, but he didn't see Li Youlan's shadow.

Another person was stabbed to death by officers and soldiers during the melee. Now only Huaihuazi and San Mazi are left to protect Liu Heiqi and Qin Yixuan's carriage and fight and retreat. The officers and men had no horses except for one headed by one on horseback, and they could no longer catch up with them after they had chased less than a mile outside the east gate of Zhuxian Town. Only then did a group of officers and soldiers return in a huff.

Several people panicked and ran wildly all the way, but fortunately, Liu Heiqi's "Chrysanthemum Blue" was quite humane, and he followed the owner for many years, and he ran back with a few people in the melee. After a few people ran out for more than 30 miles, Huaihuazi saw a forest in front of him, and hurriedly shouted: "Come into the woods, quickly see how the seventh brother is injured." ”

Several men drove the carriage and horses into the woods, and by this time it was already dawn. The morning breeze of April is blowing the willow branches, the remnant stars in the sky have disappeared, the morning star is bright, and the east has turned slightly white. Huaihuazi and San Mazi kicked off the horse, ran to the carriage in three steps and two steps, and hurriedly went to see Liu Heiqi's injury.

I saw that Liu Heiqi's eyes were slightly closed, his face was distorted by pain, his face was like gold leaf, and a faint moan came out of his mouth. Half of the spear head in the left rib was exposed, and the blood gushed like a spring, staining the whole carriage red, and it was impossible to see the people. Huaihuazi stretched out her hand and just wanted to pull out the head of the gun, when she suddenly heard a loud shout: "Stop, don't." ”

Huaihuazi looked up and saw that it was Qin Yuxuan. Huaihuazi suddenly remembered that Qin Yanxuan was a contemporary famous doctor, and couldn't help but have her eyes shining, turning her worries into joy. Suddenly, he knelt in front of the carriage and kowtowed to Qin Yixuan: "Third master, I hope you will save my eldest brother regardless of your past suspicions." If the eldest brother is saved this time, I, Huaihuazi, will never forget your great kindness. ”

Qin Yanxuan said: "Quickly untie me." Huaihuazi woke up like a dream: "Yes, yes, yes." He and San Mazi hurriedly untied the third master. Qin Yuxuan got out of the car, moved his hands and feet a little, and said, "Originally, you tied me up, I shouldn't have saved him." But the heart of the doctor's parents, it is the duty of the doctor to save the life and help the wounded, even if I save him and you tie me up again, I can't see death without saving. ”

Huai Huazi said good things again and again: "Third master, if you save my eldest brother and let me make you a cow and a horse, I am willing, how dare I tie you up again?" If you don't believe me, I'll swear to you. If my Huaihuazi doesn't count, let me get out of this forest and be caught by the government with zero blades (Ling Chi was executed). ”

Qin Yixuan said: "I don't believe the words of you people, it is my duty for me to save him, and I don't want you to repay him." As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves to check Liu Heiqi's wounds. I saw that the wound was blurred with flesh and blood, and the blood was still flowing. After seeing that he lifted the seat in the carriage, it turned out that under the seat of the carriage was a box containing various medicines and acupuncture treatments. These things Qin Yanxuan takes wherever he goes, this is a must-have thing to be a langzhong.

Qin Yuxuan took out a pack of silver needles, gauze, and some medicines from inside. Qin Yuxuan took the silver needle in his hand and pierced a silver needle in Liu Heiqi's holes, such as Kongshi, Yinbai, Erbai, Xuanmen, Fengchi, Fengfu, Hegu, etc., which were all used to stop bleeding. Then he opened Liu Heiqi's clothes, only to see that the head of the gun was deep into the flesh, and shook his head slightly.
